Well, there was his answer. The gym challenge would continue on as normal, at least up until the tournament itself, and they would just hope that Ryker turned up safe and sound. They weren’t to get involved, leave the investigation to the police and perform their roles as gym leaders either until everything was resolved or they had no choice but to cancel.

That was all fine with him; Sebastien had no intention of interfering in whatever investigation was currently active. Some of the other leader didn’t agree of course and making their position vocally known; they wanted to cancel the whole thing, or they wanted to go out and look for Ryker themselves, take out whoever did it if it was actually a kidnapping and not something else. He got that, he really did, but unfortunately he couldn’t share their sentiment. They all knew the kid, Sebastien didn’t; he’d only met the guy last night and while he liked the champion well enough he wasn’t about to go charging off looking for trouble for someone he barely knew. And as heartless as it might sound, he wasn’t so torn up about this that he couldn’t just get on with his job like he was being asked to. The fact that they were being asked to keep an eye on each other just in case was worrying, but that was just more reason not to become a part of this.

Ryker seemed like a good guy, Sebastien hoped he was safe, but if he was being asked to just do his job as normal and let the police handle then that’s what he’d do.

The situation in the room was tense though and would likely continue to be so until someone stormed out or was kicked out. Rather than stick around for that Sebastien decided it was best to make an early exit and prepare to receive the challengers who would expect the gym challenge to still be running.
